A possible “solar garden” occupying a 10-acre parcel of agricultural land straddling the Marydel-Caroline County line drew almost two dozen residents to the Marydel town hall meeting room recently.
The Caroline Review reports solar project planners from Denver-based Pivot Energy presented the proposal and answered questions during the 2-hour meeting. Social media posts on the town’s Facebook page prior to the meeting stated mostly opposition to the project in principle and referred to the sprawling utility scale solar project on nearly 800 acres along State Route 313 between Goldsboro and Greensboro.
